Johime Three Kingdoms

Chapter 339 Little Mr. Great Talent

Continuing on the way south, from Hulao Pass to the old capital of Luoyang, the defense force is not very strong. Even the most dangerous pass still needs people to guard it. Thousands of people are now going up and down Hulao Pass, and several floors are blocked. The city walls are full of people standing shoulder to shoulder...

And they are just ordinary defenders, not front-line troops.

The most important thing is...who wants to fight with a "passer-by"?
Even Cao Cao has no desire to stop the Black Mountain Army. Sima Fang increased the population of Hanoi by more than 20 without moving an army. Cao Cao was indeed tempted, but now his most important goal is to pursue the Yuan family in Hebei. !

After all, it is different from the history without the "White Rabbit Effect". Now not only Yuan Shao is not dead, but Yuan's youngest son Yuan Shang is killed in the battle, which greatly reduces the factors of Yuan's civil strife. Cao Cao cannot continue to wait for the Yuan's civil strife, otherwise it will be equivalent to Giving the other party a chance to breathe.

Therefore, after Cao Cao saw Sima Fang's report and judged the intention of the Black Mountain Army to go west, he immediately relaxed a lot.

After all, the entire Sili land is now very "deserted".

However, Cao Cao did not suffer in vain. Along the way, he quickly informed Luoyang and Hulao Pass. They all came up with the idea of ​​​​only protecting the city on the surface and privately persuading the Black Mountain tribesmen to surrender...

Zhang Yan is also troubled by this. When he was in the Taihang Mountains, he was just the "leader" and did not have strong binding force on the ministries. Now that the ministries are scattered all over Sili, it is even more difficult for him to command as well as he can.

"It is said that Mr. Xiao has always been smart, what do you want to teach me?" Zhang Yan came to the car and asked Sima Yi who was lying on the bed.

Sima Yi had only reached the crown the year before last, and Zhang Yan was only seven or eight years older than him. He was almost 20 years old. However, one of them looked sickly. After all, he had not been exposed to the sun for a long time, and the other... had rough hair. The beard and bones and joints are also very thick, making him look more than [-] years older.

"The King of Yan is ridiculously complimentary. There is just a scholar in the lower class, and now he is bedridden..."

Before Sima Yi could finish speaking, Yu Du, who also had a beard but had shaved it down to only stubble, also stepped forward and said to Zhang Yan specifically in front of Sima Yi: "Your Majesty, before you grab...cough , the few cows that the people donated to Huang Tianjin can no longer pull the cart, so it is useless to keep them, so why not let the brothers eat them!"

"It's no use? Then kill it and eat it! Don't forget to leave the leg of beef to the little gentleman." Zhang Yan waved his hand.

"Here." Yu Du said, glancing at Sima Yi with a strange smile.

Zhang Yan continued to look at Sima Yi with a smile on her face and said, "Little sir, where did we just talk?"

Sima Yi: ...

Well, Cao Cao enlisted him, so he could call him "Feng Bi". Firstly, the current Cao Cao doesn't really care about a mere Zhongda who has a small reputation. Number.

However, in Zhang Yan's case, even though he has "put on shoes" now, the banditry habits cannot be changed. Pretending to be sick or stupid is obviously of no use to Zhang Yan.

"Ahem, the king is talking about the officials along the way, who will persuade the people of other tribes to stay, right? I have... Well, three strategies can be used together.

First, the king should give up titles such as King Yan and Commander Daqu at this time, call himself strictly according to his military position, and designate positions and titles for the commanders of Qu in other ministries under his command. Only in this way can he reflect the legitimate superiority and subordinates. Make the people who follow you feel at ease.

The second is to immediately make a promise to the people in various ministries and let them know that they are going to Guanzhong, a fertile and wild place thousands of miles away. Moreover, Guanzhong is sparsely populated at this time. As long as they enter the pass, every household can be allocated hundreds of acres of fertile land.

The third is to let the Qushuai of various ministries know how many Yellow Turban Qushuai died in imperial conquests, and to let the people accompanying them know that because of the war with Hebei in recent years, the people of the Central Plains have been receiving additional punishments. Now many men and women of the right age have been punished because of this. Sterilization..." Sima Yi said after thinking for a while.

Zhang Yan was stunned for a while after hearing this. After Sima Yi finished speaking, he thought about it for a while. After a while, he suddenly slapped Sima Yi on the thigh and said, "Seconds!"

Sima Yi was so shot that he almost didn't come up. He was about to sit up, but he pretended to have a backache and lay back down.

"Just follow what Mr. Xiao said...Official position? Official position...What should I title myself? General Tiangong? Great General?" Zhang Yan thought about his title.

However, Sima Yi had a black line and was speechless for this guy who wanted to be "banned".

Return to General Tiangong?
This is what Zhang Jiao called himself back then... Are you afraid that others won't regard you as a rebel?
Also the great general...

Who do you think you can beat, Yuan Shao or Bai Tuli?
"This move is intended to make the general's name justifiable. It is not appropriate to boast about Haikou, let alone use official titles other than those of the imperial court." Sima Yi said tentatively.

Zhang Yan didn't know whether it was because she was slow or because she didn't care about it. She didn't frown when Sima Yi said that he was "extremely boastful about Haikou", but continued to think about what kind of official title she should have.

"Since the general is going to Guanzhong, it's better...to get a 'General Zhengxi'." Seeing this, Sima Yi offered to suggest.

General Zhengxi first appeared in the early years of the Later Han Dynasty. Liu Xiu sent Feng Yi, one of Yuntai's 28 generals, to quell the Red Eyebrow Army who was causing trouble in Guanzhong. Because Guanzhong was to the west of Luoyang, Feng Yi was named "Zhengxi". General".

After that, the generals who commanded the troops and horses in Yongliang were often named "Generals of the West", under the generals of Wei and above the generals of Zhenxi.

In his early years, Cao Cao's dream was to be a general in the Western Conquest...

Although he is not as good as a general or a cavalry general, he is suitable for the destination of Guanzhong.

And Yang Feng wouldn't have any objections to Zhang Yan because of this. After all, Yang Feng was directly awarded the title of Chariot and Cavalry General because of his meritorious service in escorting the Han Emperor eastwards - of course, he only had one title.

At that time, Liu Xie had already given satellite-style titles to the "heroes" he wanted to win over. More than ten years ago, when Huangfu Song was at his peak, he was only a Zuo Chaqi general!

After listening to Sima Yi's explanation, Zhang Yan felt that she was a junior official compared to Yang Feng, which was a bit awkward. However, because General Zhengxi happened to correspond to the land of Yongliang, Zhang Yan finally accepted Sima Yi's opinion.

It happened that Zhang Yan had not yet passed Luoyang at this time, so he sent people directly to the east to deliver a message to Xudu - indicating that he was the general who conquered the west.

This was what Sima Yi taught him. At this time, Zhang Yan was going to Guanzhong, and Cao Cao would not disagree.

As for the commander-in-chief of other ministries, Zhang Yan also gave them various titles as generals, and promised each ministry that after entering the Guanzhong land, everyone would have fertile land to divide. He also did not forget to slander Cao Cao for overdrafting the manpower of the Central Plains, and even forcibly removed the troops. The behavior of a warrior!

And continued to coerce the people along the way, temporarily stopping the team from "slimming down"...

The defenders of Luoyang, Han Fu and Meng Tan, did not dare to show their faces, and they let the Montenegro Army pass almost in vain.

Finally, in July of the sixth year of Jian'an, Zhang Yan's vanguard had joined Yang Feng in Hongnong County, and the Black Mountain Army... officially completed its migration, left Hebei, and intervened in the battle of Guanzhong!
